Fluorescence microscopy of nanochannel-confined DNA

Persson, Fredrik LU ; Westerlund, Fredrik and Tegenfeldt, Jonas O. LU orcid (2011) In Methods in Molecular Biology 783. p.159-179
Abstract

Stretching of DNA in nanoscale confinement allows for direct visualization of the genetic contents of the DNA on the single DNA molecule level. DNA stretched in nanoscale confinement also allows for studies of DNA-protein interactions and DNA polymer physics in confined environments. This chapter describes the basic steps to fabricate the nanostructures, to perform the experiments, and to analyze the data.
